    Amy Morin | Author and Keynote Speaker | "Mental strength is not about acting tough."

    Amy Morin is a licensed psychotherapist, keynote speaker, award-winning host of the Mentally Stronger podcast, and an international bestselling author of six books on mental strength, including the globally acclaimed 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do. Her work has been featured by major outlets including Good Morning America, Today, Oprah, Tamron Hall, and the BBC. Her TEDx Talk, The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong, has been viewed more than 24 million times, and her writing and speaking have helped millions of people rethink what it means to build resilience, manage adversity, and grow mentally stronger. Amy’s passion for teaching mental strength comes from both her clinical expertise and her personal experience. After losing her mother and husband by the age of 26, she began exploring mental strength not just as a therapist, but as someone trying to navigate grief, uncertainty, and life’s most difficult moments herself. Here's some notable highlights from our conversation: [7:18] — From Grief to Mental Strength [10:50] — The Power of What Not to Do [13:18] — The Myth of Mental Toughness [16:32] — Building Discomfort Tolerance [19:33] — Helping Athletes With Anxiety Before Performance  [22:38] — The 3 Components of Mental Strength [26:11] — Stop Giving Away Your Power [28:16] — Controlling What You Can Control [31:45] — The Mental Strength Playbook [34:37] — Emotion Regulation for Coaches [37:24] — Mental Strength Takes Reps [40:05] — Confidence Isn't a Feeling [44:13] — Helping Resistant Athletes [47:41] — Learning to Ask for Help [50:03] — Life on a Sailboat Learn More About Amy: Learn more about Amy's coaching, speaking, and books hereLearn More About Zach: Register for the upcoming free webinar on Monday, May 11th at 4pm (PST) -- Register HereExplore 1:1 coaching with Zach -- Schedule a free call hereSubscribe to my free newsletter hereYou can watch the video recordings of the podcast on YouTube here.

    The Expectation Effect: How a Coach's Beliefs Shape a Player's Behavior

    The expectations you hold for others are never neutral. In this episode, we break down the Pygmalion Effect (also known as the Rosenthal Effect) and the classic 1968 study with school children that revealed how important expectations can be. If you're a coach, leader, parent, teacher, or anyone in an authority position, and you want your people to grow, it starts with what you expect from them (and how you show it).

    Erin Matson | Head Field Hockey Coach, Univ. of North Carolina | “Your people need to know you’ll fight for them.”

    What does it look like to immediately go from one of the most decorated athletes in college sports to leading that same program from the sidelines? In this episode, I sit down with Erin Matson, head field hockey coach at the University of North Carolina and one of the most accomplished athletes in the history of the sport. During her playing career, Erin helped lead UNC to four NCAA Championships and five ACC titles, while becoming the all-time leading scorer in both ACC history and NCAA Tournament play. She’s a five-time ACC Player of the Year (the only athlete in any sport to earn that honor five times) and a three-time recipient of the Honda Sport Award for Field Hockey. Shortly after graduating, she stepped into the role of head coach at just 23 years old and, in her first season, led the Tar Heels to both an ACC Championship and a National Championship. In addition to her collegiate success, Erin has competed on the U.S. National Team since the age of 17, representing the country on the international stage and continuing to contribute to the growth of the game. Here's some notable highlights from our conversation: [6:23] — Being Announced as Head Coach [10:17] — First Message to the Team [17:10] — Shifting From Playing to Leading [22:57] — The "Spinning Plates" Lesson [30:01] — From Survival to Creator Mode [38:27] — Developing Yourself as a Coach [44:40] — Coach Development Drives Player Development [48:54] — Who Is Your Person? [52:04] — Lessons From Elite Leaders [1:00:57] — Pride in the Small Details Follow Erin's Coaching Journey: Follow Erin on Instagram hereLearn More About Zach: Explore 1:1 coaching with Zach -- Schedule a free call hereSubscribe to my free newsletter hereYou can watch the video recordings of the podcast on YouTube here.
